More Mail Fun

Happy Monday!!  Things were a little crazy here last week, so we're continuing our Mail fun Munchkin Theme for another week.  Here's a recap of our mailtivities:

Letter of the week: M
Creative, Crafty, Sensory Fun:
  • M is for Mail letter craft
  • 'Writing' some letters for the Grandmas
  • Letter matching game
  • Match the stamp to the letter game (I'm making some felt envelopes with shapes on them and matching stamps to be adhered with velcro)
  • Color stamp sorting (using foam 'stamps')
  • Pretend Post Office play - complete with big mailbox (aka cardboard box), letter carrier bag, 'letters', small mailboxes and rolls of 'stamps' (aka stickers)
Books:
  • Millie Waits for the Mail by Alexander Steffensmeier
  • Post Office Book: Mail and how It Moves by Gail Gibbons
  • Word Family Tales: Snail Mail by Maria Fleming
  • Bunny Mail by Rosemary Wells
  • Delivering Your Mail: A Book about Mail Carriers by Ann Owen
  • Sadie the Air Mail Pilot by Kellie Strom
  • Post Office: Active Learning about Community Workers by Carol Wawrychuk
I've been a little (ok alot) slow at posting our Munchkin Theme activites over on Sweet Little Munchkin, starting this week I'm working on that backlog.
